LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
.... . „ ..yr7

Dear Sir:,
I was wondering if you could
see your way clear to: give • us
first, a few minutes of youi time
to read -my letter and-secondlY, if
you consider it worthwhile, space
in your paper so that the general
public_cari_peruse_i
about it; then take some action to
bring the problem to a successful
conclusion.
My story starts with the saying
that :we often hear in the spring
just when the snow has left-,
"Isn't everything so dirty? It
Sure will be nice when the graSs
starts to grow and greens 'up, and
we get the spring rains to wash
things down."
Well, the spring rains come,
and the grass grows and green,
but there are some articles that
the rains cannot wash away--or
the grass—doesn't gravv=_,,
enough to cover it and that is the
litter that is so carelessly throWn
• or placed, along our highways,
picnic-or-park Iands EVen if the
grass does manage to cover it,
there are people who keep adding
to the litter year round.
The Highway Traffic Act states
that "Every person who throws
or deposits -or causes to be de=
scraps of metal or-ony 'rubbish,
iefuse, waste or litter upon, along
or adjacent .to the •highway, ex-
cept in receptacles provided for
the purpose, is guilty of the of-
fence. • of littering on the. high-
Way." If a per§on is convicted of
this offence, a' sizeable , fine can
be imposed by the courts.
A police officer can never' be
everywhere, so it is up to the pub-
lic- to help their police- force-be-
cause a police force is only as
•
good/as the co-operation they re-
ceive from the public. A police-
man,is an employee of the public.
but like an employee, he must
have the equipment to do the job'
and in his case, the more infor-
mation he can receive, the better
the_ job can_ be_ done._
In this case, we are not asking
the public for, information, but
rather that they police them-
selves and the_ members of their
families. It's true that one little
cigarette butt, one facial tissue,
one pop can or one ice cream
Wrapper., just to 'mention a few
articles, . doesn't cover much

area, but WOW!—If everybody
who uses our highways or parks
dropped one little article what a
mess it would be. It anyone cares
to disagree with me; just stop and
look around and ask the Ministry
otlransportatiorranctCommuoi-
cations • or the Ministries of
Natural Resources and Industry
and Tourism hoW much garbage
they collect • and what it costs to
Tkitlup_alterAhe litter bugs have
been there. •
People have always wanted to
save money;, well here is a case
where we can save millions. Sure•
the- government 'pays 'for it, but
doesn't it, come from your pay
cheques?—and we can avoid pay-
ing fines. WhO knows, if'we all get
on the band wagon and stop lit-
_tering,. the_gOv_erninept_tnight
just have .the money to complete
that worthwhile project your
community wants and you might
alew extra dollars lorseur
own personal project
Yours truly,
Const. H. A, Tighe,

No. 6 District.
Use BULK SPREADING SERVIC
for convenience
' Why is a Fall application of fertilizer so profitab le
_TOPA:PRESSING HAY AND PASTURE insures winter har
ness and hence winter survival 'of the alfalfa and clover.
increased soil fertility level also means extra spring and sum
growth—higher yields/more feed per acre/more milk per co
more gain on beef.
FALL PLOW-DOWN, -another important requirement for n
year's cash crops. Plow-down prevents seed burning when j#1ar
amount of fertilizer than is safe to apply near the seed, is to
used. -The fertilizer is better mixed in soil and where straw or
stocky are turned under, results in a faster decomposition.
REMEMBER I- CO-OP Bulk Spreading is fast, labour savings
economical. You get CO-OP Fertilizer spread for you at apprs
mately the bag price. Another of the many farmer-owned Co
services.
